This body of this wooden smooth plane is made form a single piece of white oak.

The plane is equiped with a 2 inches wide Hock High Carbon iron assembly. The iron has not been honed. Hone the blade before first use. A good quality honing jig is highly recommended. Do it slowly and enjoy the process.

The iron assembly is hold in place with a wooden wedge under a brass pin. Use a small hammer to adjust the depth of cut. Always start with the lightest cut as you can at the very begining. After a little practice you should be able to make paper like shavings with whisper sound.

As all wooden products please wait for a few weeks before tuning the plane body until the wood settles in your own shop. A light coat of wax can also help protect the plane body.

Bench Planes are the workhorses of the shop. We make all sizes that Stanley did from the tiny No. 1 to the huge No. 8. Each has its own charm but personal preference plays a large part in choosing the right bench plane for a particular job. A beginner needs two basic sizes - a smoothing plane (No. 4 or 4-1/2) and a Jointer (No. 7 or 8). A Jack Plane (usually a No. 5) would be the next most useful size.

The frog design is unique - a fully machined mating fit between the frog and the body. The design also allows precise and easy adjustments of the mouth opening from the rear without having to remove the cap and blade.

  • 9-1/2" long with a 2" wide by .125" thick A-2 Steel blade

  • Ductile Iron body Bronze cap Cherry handle and knob

  • 45 degree High Angle Frog
